.

  2. Although

  4. None of the above

hintHint:

Conjunction is a word to connect clauses or sentences or to coordinate words in the same clause (e.g., and, but, if).

The correct answer is: Although


    You use 'although' to introduce a subordinate clause which contains a statement which makes the main clause of the sentence seem surprising or unexpected. 'Martha finished first, although she started very late', here 'although' used for introducing a statement that makes surprising. It connects two opposite sentences together.
